6. FUNCTIONING OF THE DEVICE AND USER GUIDE 6.1 OPERATOR - USER The device functions fully autonomously, without the need of the constant intervention of an operator. The user acts as the operator of the device. He carries out the first start up. After having started up the device, he should perform all the checks, monitor its proper functioning, and if necessary, proceed to switch it off.
Intended use
THE DEVICE IS DESIGNED AND BUILT TO OPERATE ONLY AFTER BEING CORRECTLY INSTALLED ON A HEAT GENERATOR (BOILER, HOT WATER HEATER). ANY OTHER USE IS TO BE CONSIDERED IMPROPER. THE DEVICE IS DESIGNED AND BUILT TO BURN WOOD PELLETS WHICH DO NOT CONTAIN SAWDUST AND HAVE THE FOLLOWING FEATURES: Lower calorific value
5 kWh/kg
Density
650 kg/m³
Moisture percentage
8% of the weight (max)
Ash percentage
1% of the weight (max)
Diameter
6 mm
Length
25 mm (max)
THE USER MUST GARANTEE THE PROPER ASSEMBLY OF THE DEVICE, ENSTRUSTING THE INSTALLATION TO QUALIFIED AND CERTIFIED PERSONNEL,AND HAVING THE FIRST START UP DONE BY AN SERVICE CENTER AUTHORIZED BY THE MANUFACTURER. DO NOT EVER OPEN OR REMOVE ANY COMPONENT OD THE DEVICE. THE DEVICE IS DESIGNED AND BUILT TO FUNCTION ESCLUSIVELY WITH HEAT GENERATORS THAT HAVE A NEGATIVE PRESSURE COMBUSTION CHAMBER. DIFFERENT USES MAY CAUSE FIRE HAZARD.
IMPORTANT: WE RECOMEND THE USER TO USE GOOD QUALITY PELLETS, BECAUSE LOW QUALITY PELLETS DETERMINE LOWER HEAT OUTPUTS, A HIGHER ASH CONTENT, CREATING THE NEED FOR MORE FREQUENT CLEANINGS, A CHANCE OF EARLY WEAR OF THE COMPONENTS OF THE BURNER EXPOSED TO THE FLAME, OBSTRUCTIONS OF THE COCHLEA AND OF THE BURNER DUE TO THE EXCESS OF DISSOLVED SAWDUST, SHUT DOWNS DUE TO THE SEDIMENTATION OF NON-COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS INSIDE THE BURNER.

6.2 RESIDUAL RISKS DEVICE Burner
RESIDUAL RISK Thermal risk
NOTES
SIGNS
The surfaces of the burner near the flame, heat both during the prestart phase and during the functioning; they remain hot even after the burner has been switched off. Therefore there is a risk that a maintenance operator – while removing the burner from the heat generator - may come into contact with the heated surfaces. This risk is managed as residual risk and an appropriate warning is placed on the device.
Do not touch the surface of the burner while it is still hot.
6.3 SAFETY DEVICES INSTALLED The safety devices installed are: - A fixed setting thermostat (60 °C) is installed on the fuel supply tube; when the temperature of the tube exceeds the fixed temperature, which derives from a return of heat, the thermostat stops the burner. - A photoresistance supplied with the burner, which stops the burner if the flame is absent.
6.4 CONTROL PANEL AND DESCRIPTION OF KEYS
Fig. 11 Control Panel
LEGEND 1. Potentiometer for regulation of burner power (OFF = turned off) 2. Burner function led 3. Potentiometer for regulation of the fan (Increases or Reduces the flow of air to the combustion chamber)

Description of Potentiometer Start-Up and Shut-down To ignite the burner it is sufficient to turn the potentiomenter outside the first band (off) no.1 (see figure 11), and the card will start up the ignition cycle. To turn off the burner it is sufficient to turn the potentiometer inside the first band (off); the burner will carry out the shut-down procedure. The start-up and shut-down phase is indicated by the led which will be green and flashing very fast.(5 flashes per second), no. 2 (vedi fig. 11)..
temperature regulation Thanks to the potentiometer, it is possible to programme the temperature of the water. It is sufficient to turn the potentiometer to the position required. The water temperature can be regulated from a temperature of 25° up to a maximum of 90°. According to the temperature programmed, the card adjusts the power level in line with the current water temperature, from power level “5” to power level “1”, when the actual water temperature reaches the temperature programmed. Difference Between Temperature Set – Actual Temperature 5° 4° 3° 2° 1° 0°

When the water temperature is inferior to the temperature programmed, the led will be green and will flash according to the power calculated (see table above). Once the temperature programmed is reached, the led will be green and the light will be steady with no flashing.
Led description Thanks to the LEDs which use the new “multi-colour” technology, it is possible to diagnose the state of the burner, and the alarms which are active, in real time. In the table below, we describe the state of the LEDs and their relative meaning. LED Colour

Alarm Messages The flashing of the led indicates the present alarm situation.The action which the card initiates in accordance with the alarm input and the current phase of the burner is indicated below. In the case of the low fuel level alarm, the water probe alarm or the water temperature alarm, the burner will shut down. In the case of a black-out, the burner will try to reactivate itself on the basis of the data transmitted from the photo sensor resistance. In the case of a failed start-up, the burner will try to re-ignite up to the maximum number of attempts programmed by the installer. To reset an alarm, it is necessary to wait until the burner has shut down, and then the potentiometer must be positioned in the OFF position. If the alarm phase is resolved, the led will become green again.
Air Correction The secondary potentiometer for air correction, no.3 (see fig. 11) manages the operational speed of the fume extractor: by turning it to the left, it will diminish the air flow, while turning it to the right will increase the air flow.
7. FAULTS - CAUSES - SOLUTIONS The burner is equipped with a self diagnosis system, which, in case of a fault to the burner, displays the following messages on the display. In the following table are indicated the most common faults with their possible solutions.
